Ooni, Tope Alabi, others to attend Simpli Praise 5.0

The fifth season of the popular gospel concert— Simpli Praise— is set to be held on December 24, 2024, at the Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos.

According to the organisers, thousands of people will gather for the annual all-night praise concert, which is convened by Edna Ubebe.

Sharing her vision for the event, Ubebe said, “It is simply about lifting God. It is a joyful recounting of what God has done for us. Praise and thanksgiving go hand in hand, as thanking God offers appreciation for who He is.

“This year’s edition promises a convergence of royalty and gospel greatness, with guests such as the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, gracing the event as the royal father of the day.

“Accompanying him on the grand stage will be an impressive lineup of gospel music heavyweights, including Funmi Aragbaiye, Tope Alabi, Mike Abdul and Dare Justified, among others.”

Highlighting the success of past editions of the event, Ubebe added, “Testimonies from past editions still linger. With its rich history of impactful worship and exciting side attractions, Simpli Praise has cemented its place as a premier event for Lagosians and gospel music lovers in general.

“It offers an opportunity for individuals and families to come together in a spirit of unity and thanksgiving.”

This year’s edition is themed ‘Chosen Generation’, and it will be a hybrid event as it will also be streamed live on the Internet.
